Jeeves extricates the incurable serial lovebird Bingo Little from several sticky situations, while occasionally working the same grey cells to save Wooster some blushes.
Bingo keeps falling in love with very “unsuitable” women, who his very rich uncle will not approve of. Dependent on the uncle for exchequer, Bingo appeals to Jeeves and Wooster for help in situations involving a waitress called Mabel, the erudite Honoria Glossop, a communist called Charlotte Rowbotham, a socialite called Cynthia Wickhammersley and several others.
The most amusing running theme in these stories is Rosie M. Banks, an author who writes sappy romance novels. Bingo initially uses her works to “soften” his uncle, and then gets Bertie to pose as Rosie herself. Ironically, the woman Bingo eventually marries turns out to be the real Rosie herself.
Full of roll-on-the-floor, laugh-out-loud situations and written with beautiful language, this book is ever the constant entertainer.
